Hover-crate or Beer-Kart
So i'm an Engineer, who is married with three children . A Boy to date of writing 5 years of age and a pair of twins of 2.5 years old a girl and a boy. To be completely honest next to my work these four have the ability to claim all my spare time and/or deprive me of my sleep. Time i used to fill with motorcycles. If you want you can read up on that in my first ever blog: "CAFERACING AND RESTOMODDING A RD350B".
One thing to note, is that i write my blog's about these projects with the power of hindsight. Meaning that the project is at least 75% finished and has been in use for (in this case) at least a year.
What am i hinting at, with this title:"Hover-crate or Beer-Kart". And how did it came about? Somehow my mind tricks me into these things. In this case a idea i had about modifying a BobbyCar, evolved into a hybrid of combining a hoverboard to an beer crate.
My wife bought our oldest son who was 2 at the time, a bobby-car shape like an VW-beetle. It appealed to me from an engineering standpoint. This thing was well designed and looked like the "new-beetle"to! Just for kicks i googled it, and found that they race them just across the border. Funny guys those germans.
Well this kickstarted a couple of evenings lurking on the internet, in which i found:
- Germans racing and modifying bobbycars
- Germans motorizing bobbycars
- Somehow this evolved in gas(over)powered beer crates
- Ackermann -steering
- Camber angle
- Castor angle
- Toe in / toe out
